Chapter 296 A Gimmick? A Liar!
The so-called old miracle doctor snorted coldly and proudly raised his head.
"I am my own person, and no one can control me!"
Yun Zhao: ...
I can see that.
It's better to kill someone who's dependent on others than to let them depend on others.
etc.
If he was unwilling to rely on others, why did he use the name of Jishetang to do things?
"Since you're not anyone's man, then it's about what you want to do, and someone's making a deal with you, right?"
As if Yun Zhao had seen through him, he awkwardly looked away.
"It seems I was right. May I ask your honorable name, venerable old doctor?"
Listening to Yun Zhao's serious question, the old doctor felt that she was mocking him.
"My name is Guiguzi."
He raised his chin slightly and said arrogantly.
Yun Zhao paused, looking at the arrogant old man with some surprise.
Wasn't Guiguzi Ling Xue Rou's cheap master in her previous life?
He's said to be obsessed with medicine.
While others are obsessed with medical books, he is obsessed with studying the effects of various drugs or acupuncture techniques on patients.
In the twenty-first year of the Yuanqi era, Guiguzi, in order to research a prescription for treating headaches, cruelly murdered nearly fifty people and was sentenced to beheading.
Before this, Ling Xuerou was his half-disciple.
"Oh, your apprentice is Ling Xuerou, right?"
The words were clearly a question, but the tone was affirmative.
Guiguzi looked up at her in shock.
"You little rascal, you're really smart."
As expected, Ling Xuerou was reborn and wanted to become Pei Jishi's apprentice first.
But she beat me to it.
Therefore, it's quite normal for Ling Xuerou to seek out Guiguzi again.
However, the Guiguzi of his previous life gradually went mad after studying for more than ten years.
In this life, if Ling Xuerou really becomes an apprentice beforehand...
She might very well encourage Guiguzi to use the name of Jishetang to pursue medical research.
Anyway, if he succeeds, it will enhance his reputation as a legendary doctor.
If we fail, we'll damage the reputation of Jishetang, and even the reputation of Yaowang Valley.
Yun Zhao chuckled and shook his head: "Of course I'm smart, it's just that you're a bit stupid, you don't even realize you're being used."
With those civilians still around, and Yun Zhao being so blunt, Guiguzi felt ashamed.
"Little one, don't follow Pei Jishi anymore, become my apprentice instead, I will definitely teach you well!"
"You're using the guise of practicing medicine to swindle people and disregard human life. Survive first before you start talking about taking on apprentices."
As they were talking, Zhuge Yue walked in carrying a gong.
"We can go now!"
The Zhuge family found some wooden planks and carried the patient up there.
Then Zhuge Yue grabbed Guiguzi and followed Yun Zhao out of the East Alley.
It was already broad daylight, and people had already gone out to the market, with the streets bustling with people.
"Clang—"
Zhuge Yue suddenly banged the gong, immediately attracting everyone's attention.
The Hu family used to frequently bring wild animals with them, and the people of Liang Town had seen it before.
Therefore, when they saw Yun Zhao riding a tiger, although they were afraid, they did not scatter and flee.
"Come quick! A quack doctor expelled from Medicine King Valley is using the name of Jishetang to harm people! Everyone, be vigilant and don't be fooled!"
Zhuge Yue shouted loudly and then slammed the door shut again.
"Clang—"
"Come and see!"
She shouted once with each strike of the gong.
Guiguzi's face turned ashen, and he glared at Zhuge Yue through gritted teeth.
If they act like this, how can he face others in the future?
This commotion drew a large crowd of onlookers to the market.
"You can tell he's no good just by looking at his shifty eyes!"
"Being expelled from the sect and still using the name of a divine physician is truly outrageous!"
The people were talking about it.
Someone threw a stone first, and with a "bang," it hit Guiguzi on the head.
He was immediately smashed, causing him to bleed profusely!
Once it happens, it will happen again.
In an instant, many people started throwing stones at him.
"Don't throw it away! Ah!"
The pebble wasn't big, but it hurt him badly.
Some people are even more curious about the origin of Yun Zhao.
"Is this little girl a member of the Hu family? I've never seen her before?"
"Where in the Hu family is there such an adorable little girl?"
Yun Zhao couldn't help but smile as he listened to their praise.
"I'm not a member of the Hu family~ and I heard that Fengyun City has changed hands and the Hu family has been expelled from Fengyun City!"
I rescued this tiger by accident; it's letting me ride it to repay my kindness!
When Yun Zhao explained it this way, the people of Liang Town were immediately astonished.
The Hu family has actually been expelled from Fengyun City?
Who did such a fantastic thing!
The people, forgetting all about Guiguzi, cheered together.
What is Guiguzi compared to the Hu family, who have long held sway in Lingnan?
Finally, someone took them down!
Yun Zhao watched them cheer, keeping his achievements and fame hidden.
At that moment, Jishetang also opened its doors.
"My son!"
The sound of a woman crying could be heard from not far away.
Passersby stopped to look.
What's going on?
"Are there any injured people?"
Upon hearing the cries, the doctor from Jishetang rushed to help without even opening the door, putting down his belongings.
"Smack!"
The woman slapped the doctor who came forward across the face.
The doctor's ears were ringing from the blow.
"Quack doctor! Give me back my son!"
Why did you hit me?
Others rushed forward to help.
"Your Jishetang clinic killed my son! Give me back my son!"
The woman cried out and shook the doctor repeatedly.
Everyone at Jishetang was shocked.
"Auntie, wait a minute! You're saying that our Jishetang clinic killed your son?"
"What? You're trying to renege on your debt? My son just came to see a doctor for a cold, took medicine for two days, and then he couldn't take it anymore last night!"
Behind the woman, several burly men carried a corpse forward.
He was a very young man.
Jishetang receives countless patients every day, including all kinds of patients.
They may not be able to recognize faces, but they keep strict records of names, pulses, and prescriptions.
"What's your son's name? And which doctor are you looking for...?"
Before the doctor could finish speaking, the woman collapsed to the ground and burst into tears!
"My poor son! They killed you and now they want to renege on their debt! Ah! I don't want to live anymore, take me with you!"
People have always sympathized with the weak.
Not to mention, this person had just lost his son.
"What happened? Jishetang actually killed someone?"
In the crowd, some people looked at the person next to them with surprise.
"Don't you know? The doctor from Jishetang Hospital came to East Alley to provide free medical treatment and medicine, which killed several people. Just yesterday, two of them were buried near my house!"
"What?! Two people died in one day?!"
"This is terrifying! When did Jishetang become so incompetent?"
"I heard that a little girl, only a few years old, is treating patients at Jishetang! Could she have killed someone?"
"Good heavens! How old are you? Can you even recognize all the characters yet? You're already trying to ask medical questions?"
"They're just trying to fool people, using this gimmick of a child prodigy and a miracle doctor!"
Their statements were a mix of truth and falsehood, and the more they told the more outrageous stories they became.
Everyone at Jishetang immediately sensed something was wrong.
Some of the younger children were so angry that their eyes turned red.
"Don't talk nonsense! Medicine requires talent. My junior uncle is the old valley master's apprentice and the most talented little divine doctor!"
"Look at him, he's supposed to be a junior uncle, but after studying medicine for half his life, he's not even as good as a little baby!"
"I think that's exactly what Jishetang is like—they treat people to death and then don't want to pay compensation!"
Immediately, public sentiment surged.
Among them were many who believed in Jishetang, yet they were accused of being accomplices by those with ulterior motives.
They were so frightened that they dared not speak again.
"Clang!"
The sound of a gong came from around the corner, and everyone instinctively turned to look.
